Same here, if I have to use my Apple Id password it always works and I don't think I have changed my Apple Id password for the last 5 years or so at least. I also use 2-Factor authentication. Keeping all these old passwords is probably just confusing, if you are having problems I suggest to maybe ask for sighted help to reset it, then make sure you get rid of all the old passwords and make sure you keep the current password in a safe place. Of course my recommendation is always for a good password manager, but a braille list kept in a safe place is pretty good as well. And as always make sure it's not a password you use for other important sites, make sure it's got upper case and lower case letters, numbers and at least one symbol like a hyphen, colon, exclamation mark etc and don't use just a simple word, name of your dog and so on. You hear about all these people who are hacked or have their identity stolen and while I don't deny this can happen to even a careful person, a lot of this happens when people don't observe important security rules like strong and unique passwords, use 2-Factor authentication wherever possible and simply ignore any emails you don't recognize, phone calls where somebody claims they are from Apple, Microsoft, your bank, the government and so on and ask you to provide any sort of information. I sometimes get calls which seem legit and then I hear "What is your name" and I either hang up or ask why this is relevant at this point and more often than not they will then hang up because they realize I'm not an easy target.

I have to keep clicking on "Forgot my password" and create another one, or the same one again. I have so many Apple passwords, even written down, that I can never keep track of which one that they are in the mood to accept. I do not understand why we have to keep changing our password each time with Apple? Why can we not have one. I thought that I was the only one with this problem. I am also looking forward to and watching for any suggestions that you receive. They will also be helpful to me. Thank you for sending this message. We will both benefit from any very much appreciated suggestions. Jan Have -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
